COMMENTING upon the admission by the
mugwump Boston Herald that the Repub-
ican rascals have not been turned out be-
cause there were no rascals to turn out, the
Advertiser of that city propounds the follow
ing query to its contemporary:
knowing what we do of the Democratic
organization even in Massachusetts, does the
Herald expect that it could say in sober mo-
ment that, after twenty-four years of Demo-
cratic rule, the rascals have not been turned
out, for there were no rascals to turn outa
Is it so in Boston to-dayW
The Advertiser might have gone further
and asked if after four years of Democratic
rule in the national government there will be
no rascals to turn out. The number of men
of VIGOROUSLY bad records wko have been '.put
in" in that time, the disclosures like that in
the Harvey case, and such charges as those
against Beecher are pretty fair indications
that Republicans will find great field for
practical civilservice reform when they take
hold again.

soldier element" he is looking after the inter-
ests of his supposed boom. Colonel McLean's
unguarded remark as to the extent of his alb
sences from Washington has emphasized
what might otherwise have escaped attention.
The fact is that General Black, instead of at
tending to his duties at Washington, has been
absent Ito days in year, junketing about
the country and travelling at public expense
under the pretense of looking after the SOL
diers' interests, thing he is not employed
nor paid to do, while in reality he has been
trying to vitalize his imaginary boom for
Vice-president. This stamps him as a polit-
ical fraud.

Two Men Who Have Been Insulted Decide
that tho Army Must Go.
Milwaukee Sentinel.
A good deal of concern for tho future Of the
Grand Army of the Republic is expressed by
Democratic and mugwump journals. 1t Is their
sad conclusion that the Grand Army must go
because Mr.. Cleveland refuses to attend its
annual encampment. The clouds of wrath apss
pear to be gathering about this powerful organl-
cation, and the concerned observer wonders
whether it will be able to weather the storm. It
is easy to say that the Grand Army not
organized for the specific purpose of being
viewed by Mr. Cleveland and his
grievances against the order can
hardly swerve it from its main purposes and
compel its REORGANIZATION But Is should
considered that Mr.. Cleveland is not the only
man who feels insu,ted by the Grand Army and
is not the only force in our politics who is inter
ested in its decay. Bob Schil,ing. also, has

Another View of the Matter.

Philadelphia Press
Everyone remembers how they made the air
lurid with charges of Republican corruption in
the departments at Washington and how they
rolled the Augee-an stables along with tobacco
quid like sweet morsels under their tongue. It
stated in 1880 that if Hancock was elected there
would be fire in the Treasury building before
the day of inauguration came to burn mp the

the government for two years and four months.

the strongest possible evidence of it's inability

to the integrity OF a party was probably never
before rendered this administration has been
forced to bestow upon the Republican party.
For twenty-four years the Republicans con-
trolled the government and collected and paid
out billions of dollars. They were finally voted
out by fraud and trickery, and the mon who had
accused them of crimes took possession; but

view of these facts it will be necessary to swab
out their mouths before the next campaign be-
gins and get their jaw to swinging upon some
other figure of speech than the Au-gee-an

A REPORTER undertook to interview Hon.

THE Republican and Democratic parties in
Kentucky appear to have true and realizing
sense of the condition of affairs and nature of
the contest in the pending canvass in that
State. The Republican ticket is headed with
the old flag, the stars and stripes, and Col. W.
o. Bradley, their candidate for Governor, and
the other nominees in line following it,
while the Democratic ticket has no flag and
sis headed by Simon Bolivar Buckner, who was
educated at West Point and who went into
the confederate army and was captured in
command of Fort Doneson, and the rest of
the Democratic nominees following his name.
The loyal and Union-loving element of Ken
lucky follow the flag, and the Democrats of
Kentucky sulk behind confederate gen.
eral and mourn the failure of the lost cause.

The st. Louis Scheme.
Now York M all and Express.

It seems to be forgotten by the adulators of
Mr.. Cleveland that while at least three Presi--
dents were members of the g. A. R.. not
was ever invited to attend the annual encamp-
ment Of the organization. and that the invita-
ton of the Presidents to visit St. Louis, at tho
time Of the encampment, WAS an attempt to
force tho G.. A. r. to make an exception to the
rule which shut OUT Grant Hayes, and Garfield.
In other words, the st. Louis scheme was partly
an attempt to utilize the President as crowd
drawing attraction and partly device for secur-
ing a acknowledgements of Mr.. Cleveland from
the respectful reception which ne was sure TO
meet at the hands Of the Union veterans.
